Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you ift ime.”
1 Peter 5:6
Humility is an essential virtue in our Christian walk. Without it, our journey becomes vulnerable to pride, which gives the enemy a foothold in our lives.
God demonstrated the ultimate humility through Jesus Christ, especially when He washed His disciples’ feet. Those who submit themselves under the mighty hand of God can rest assured of His preservation and care.
Perhaps you find yourself under the harsh treatment of a difficult boss or facing persecution among friends. Stay humble and place the matter in God’s hands. Do not fight for yourself, for He has promised to exalt you in due time.
Charge: Trust in the mighty hand of God, knowing that He will lift you up at the right time.
